"If God had Voicemail"

 

            

 

We have all learned to live with "voice mail" as a necessary part of modern life.

 

But have you wondered what it would be like if God decided to install voice mail? Imagine praying and hearing this:

 

Thank you for calling My Father's House. Please select one of the following options:

 

Press 1 for Requests
Press 2 for Thanksgiving
Press 3 for Complaints
Press 4 for All Other Inquiries.
What if God used the familiar excuse...

 

"I'm sorry, all of our angels are busy helping other saints right now. However, your prayer is important to us and will be answered in the order it was received, so please stay on the line."

 

Can you imagine getting these responses as you call God in Prayer:

 

To find out if a loved one has been assigned to Heaven, Press 5, enter his or her social security number, then press the pound key. (If you get a negative response, try area code 666.) For reservations at "My Father's House," please enter J-O-H-N, followed by 3-1-6. For answers to nagging questions about dinosaurs, the age of the earth and where Noah's Ark is, please wait until you arrive here.

 

or...

 

Our computers show that you have already prayed once today. Please hang up and try again tomorrow so that others may have a chance to get through.

 

(I'm sure glad God doesn't have voice mail!)

 

"Hold On"

 

 

Hold on tightly to what is truly important in life.

 

Hold on to faith;

 

It is the source of believing that all things are possible.

 

It is the fiber and strength of a confident soul.

 

Hold on to hope;

 

It banishes doubt and enables attitudes to be positive and cheerful.

 

Hold on to trust;

 

It is at the core of fruitful relationships that are secure and content.

 

Hold on to love;

 

It is life's greatest gift of all, for it shares, cares, and gives meaning
To life.

 

Hold on to family and friends;

 

They are the most important people in your life, and they make the world a Better place. They are your roots, and the beginnings that you grew from; They are the vine that has grown through time to nourish you, help you on Your way, and always remain close by.

 

Hold on to all that you are and all that you have learned, for these things Are what makes you unique.

 

Don't ignore what you feel and what you believe is right and important;
Your heart has a way of speaking louder than your mind.

 

Hold on to your dreams; Achieve them diligently and honestly. Never take the easy way or surrender To deceit.

 

Remember others on your way and take time to care for their needs. Enjoy The beauty around you. Have the courage to see things differently and clearly.

 

Make the world a better place one day at a time. And don't let go of the Important things that give meaning to your life.
